Today at Club 99, we’ll welcome Adam Head, Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives (FACHE), president and CEO of CARTI, as the organization celebrates 50 years of service.

CARTI was founded in 1976 so Arkansans could get advanced cancer care close to home without traveling out of state. Today it is a premier multidisciplinary cancer care provider with locations across Arkansas. Adam will look back on five decades of CARTI’s impact and share his vision for the future of cancer treatment and patient care. He’ll also offer a personal view on why accessible, compassionate care matters so much to patients and families. We hope to see you there. 🎗
